Declutter Your Desktop for a Stress-Free Start

TIP OF THE MONTH

Is your computer desktop covered in icons, shortcuts, and mystery files? A cluttered screen can slow you down and
make it harder to find what you need. This month, take five minutes to tidy up.

• Create a “To Sort” Folder: Drag all loose files into one folder so you can organize them later - without losing anything.

• Keep Only What You Use Weekly: If you haven’t opened it in a month, it doesn’t need to be front and center.

• Right-Click to Remove Unused Shortcuts: Deleting a shortcut doesn’t delete the actual file - it just clears the clutter.

• Add a Calm Background: A simple photo or solid color can reduce visual stress and help you focus.

A clean desktop isn’t just about looks - it’s about confidence, clarity, and starting each session with ease.
